(Please read the below carefully. All essentials about submission process are explained in detail. And you can fin all required files below the important notes.)


• An author can submit only one manuscript in a calendar year.

We request three separate files for the submission of your manuscript. The first is the full-text file of your article. There should not be any information (such as author names; which project the article was supported with; the affiliation of authors; which previous study it was derived from) in this file. The second file is the Applicant Information File. All information about the author / s and the article should be included here. The third file is the Copyright Transfer Form.
• Prepare your full text file by copying/pasting on the template file. Please add your text by the "protect only text" command after deleting the relevant place in the template file, without any editing (font change, line change etc.).
          • [Right click> Paste Options> Protect Text Only (A)]
          • Or, after the CTRL + V command, you can do this by selecting 'protect text only' from the paste options that appear in the lower right corner of the pasted part.
• The template file you will download will facilitate the preparation of the articles in accordance with the rules of our journal. There are two separate template files for Turkish and English articles; select the appropriate one. All details about the article layout are included in the template file. All you must do is to copy and paste your own article on the template file. Articles that do not comply with the rules of our journal will be rejected before the peer-review process is started.
• According to TR Dizin criteria, manuscripts of authors without ORCID numbers will be rejected before the peer-review process is started.

It should have abstract/öz in both languages. Abstracts should be between 100 and 150 words. Under the abstract, key words that may be indicative of the main subject of the article and accepted in the scientific language used in the field should be given.
• In addition, EXTENDED SUMMARY/GENİŞLETİLMİŞ ÖZET is requested. The main purpose of the extended summary, which we have implemented since 2020, is to make use of the article by researchers who use the language other than the language in which it was written. Thus, the international accessibility of articles published in Turkish will increase; and those who do not have adequate English can also benefit from articles published in English. (You can find detailed information about the extended summary from the files below.)
• All articles should be sent to the editor in accordance with the rules stated in the APA (7th edition) publication guide.

(You can see the detailed guides on the Turkish-language page)
